"Alcohol and drug addiction are challenging to overcome, and the process requires the patients to commit to changes that may feel as if they were losing their coping strategies. EMDR has been tremendously useful when working with people who after working to attain abstinence or harm reduction in treatment are ready to start working on the trauma that led to their alcohol and drug addiction problems. I had the fortune to collaborate with many individuals that were able to deal with challenging and traumatic life experiences effectively thanks to EMDR therapy."
